    Oh man, I just looked. This design is definitely not for me.

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    It's great when it's the actual dirty laundry. As far as I can extrapolate from these comments, they believe Rich was trying to take over control of T&R and subordinate the rest of them and using contract negotiations to hold the show hostage. When they give the specifics the whole thing makes...

    ESPN Is Pathetic

    You should look up what Matt Lauer was making at NBC.

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    Rich is going to look really stupid if the next ratings book shows even more improvement.

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    Their management might have told them not to talk about it too much or something. Clearly everyone there actually hates Rich, but only Hardy has ever mentioned anything specific (agreeing to do the Vegas thing and leaving early) and Hardy doesn't hate anybody. This is baffling me.

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    I've been wanting to ask someone this for a long time - what was O&A like? I never listened but T&R used to talk about them a lot. I looked it up and read some stuff and it seems, like awful and mean. I'm clearly missing something.

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    I remember that; I thought it was passive-aggressive but I also remember that I didn't totally blame him because that was during one of Fred's difficult periods. I do think they were actually friends at one point, like during the BCN days and at the start of TSH. I remember reading in a...

    The Bill Simmons Thread

    Anyone like Whatchamacallit bars? Haven't had one in awhile but I thought they were good. Great jingle!

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    I assume what you're talking about is that Rich made a deal not to work for a certain amount of time past his contract end date, presumably for some extra money. Is that right? If so, Rich turning around and talking about that as though it's a "non-compete" and then saying it should be "totally...

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    Rich's original post before starting the show was "boy oh boy there are a lot of things we need to talk about the least of which including how non-competes are the worst and should be totally illegal..." It seems to me that Rich was strongly hinting at a non-compete clause being the reason he...

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    There's still a few on youtube. It's just not really bad enough to do that with. Something like the Minihane "what do you want to talk about? What do YOU want to talk about?..." that was epic in its badness. I think a big problem here is the RS name carried high expectations and (probably) an...

    The Bill Simmons Thread

    He's absolutely right that 100 Grand is the best candy bar. My favorite was Oh Henry but I don't think they make it anymore.

    Wow, they took down all the podcasts too - or at least I can't get them on overcast.

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    I think PJ was inferring the subtext into Rich's tweet that "IHR is why the ratings tanked, not me" (correct me if I'm wrong). It would make sense that Rich might believe that; on Boston subreddit page discussing this, there are a few people that say they liked the show until it added music...

    I don't know who this "Male Gislature" is, but he says radio non-competes are illegal: https://malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartI/TitleXXI/Chapter149/Section186

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    PJ has been a valuable source of T&R info for me for as long as these shows have been on. I've probably read more PJ posts on this topic than anyone here. I know PJ hates Rich but PJ is a good poster and I'll continue to read his posts.

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    I don't think Wallach and Hardy were backing him as much as they were just letting him cook off and politely distancing themselves from the rant. Of all the guys on that show, only Hardy (who I think hates Rich the least if I had to guess) has provided a concrete example of Rich being a jerk...

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    Cut that part about "management" out (other than thanking them for putting your name on a major market show) and it's perfect. You're probably right but I don't think he'd be pouting about the music if it were just a routine layoff.

    @Rusty13 I can't believe Minihane has any type of audience.

    Shertenlieb Show? Rich Radio? - mornings on ZLX

    Emerson is the main reason I stopped downloading and listening. It's probably just that he has a different length contract so IHR will just pay him to sit at home and gobble glizzies and take dumps.
